Rose Whitehurst, director of the Onslow County Board of Elections, said voters should be prepared for a line because there is only one one-stop location this year. Most voters wait until Election Day to vote during municipal elections.

ďBut with the school bond referendum, I donít know how thatís going to turn out,Ē she said.

Voters donít need to bring anything with them, but they will be told about the voter ID law that is scheduled to go into effect in 2016, according to Whitehurst.

However, those registering to vote during the early voting period will need to bring an official document containing the registrantís name and address on it, she said. Voters also are able to correct their voter information.

Whitehurst said she was unsure how turnout would be with early voting this year.

ďItís hard to tell because of the bond referendum. I just donít know. Itís going to be really hard to tell this time,Ē she said.

In Carteret County, one-stop voting will be held 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. weekdays until Nov. 1; and 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. Nov. 2 at the Board of Elections Office at 1702 Live Oak St. in Beaufort; and at Western Park Community Center at 275 Old N.C. 58 in Cedar Point from 12 to 7 p.m. weekdays until Nov. 1 and 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. Nov. 2.
